On the quiet banks of the Amstel River, just beyond the edge of Amsterdam, lies a rare opportunity: Amsteldijk Noord 137. A generous plot of 820 square metres, situated directly on the water – a setting where tranquillity, light and space converge. This location offers the unique opportunity to realise an exclusive villa of international calibre. A countryside estate with grandeur, where the view shifts with the rhythm of the river, while the city centre remains only fifteen minutes away. A definitive building permit has been granted for the construction of a detached villa of approximately 576 square metres. A residence spread over four levels, characterised by a contemporary and refined architectural expression. Expansive windows capture the daylight and offer vistas over the water and the surrounding garden. The villa has been conceived as a complete living environment, comprising seven bedrooms, four bathrooms, various living spaces, and a basement level with a private wellness area and indoor pool. The southwest-facing garden provides ample sun, privacy and space for multiple terraces along the water. Optionally, a private mooring can be created – a direct gateway to the water-rich landscape of the Amstel.
Tour
The ground floor forms the beating heart of the residence: a generous open-plan living level with high ceilings, abundant natural light, and large sliding doors that create a seamless connection between inside and outside. The kitchen is designed with ample space for a cooking island, wine climate cabinets and bespoke cabinetry. Daylight not only enhances the spatial quality but also lends the space a serene and welcoming atmosphere. The upper floors accommodate seven comfortable bedrooms. The principal suite distinguishes itself with panoramic views over the river, a private en-suite bathroom and a walk-in dressing room. Each bathroom is generously dimensioned and elegantly appointed with double washbasins, walk-in showers and freestanding bathtubs. Separate toilets and well-considered layouts ensure comfort and privacy on every level. The southwest-facing garden encircles the villa and offers space for several terraces, each with its own distinct character – from a sun deck by the water, to a shaded retreat beneath the trees, or an intimate roof terrace with far-reaching views of the surrounding landscape. The plot includes the option to add a private jetty, and there is ample space on-site for parking multiple cars.
